Love the one Your With by Emily Giffin

A romantic comedy about a married woman wondering about “the one that got away”
When I picked this book off the shelf, I thought it would be a great chic read – perfect for relaxing in the sun. I have read Something Borrowed, Something Blue and Baby Proof also by Emily Giffin, and loved both novels. However, I am sorely disappointed by Love the One You’re With.
I am not looking for some great work of fiction, or even a mention on the Opera list, but, I was looking for a nice easy read – one that I couldn’t put down, and would surely stay up past 11pm to finish.
Instead, the novel is sitting beside my bed, glaring at me, because I have not yet finished it (and am not sure I will) but I can’t bring myself to buy a new book!
I bought this book (hardcover) for $20 – and honestly am not sure it would have even been worth $8 for paperback.
All and all this was a dud and highly UN-recommended.
